3 UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED 2 Purpose Provide an overview of the U.S. Army Tank Automotive Research, Development and Engineering Center s (TARDEC s) capabilities related to LCMC Industrial Base Support

4 UNCLASSIFIED 3 Agenda Purpose Industrial Base Environment TARDEC Industrial Base Support Industrial Base Culture Change IBIT/IBET Mission TARDEC s DMSMS Contract Depot/Arsenal Support

5 UNCLASSIFIED 4 Ground Equipment Support Escalating Support Challenges (production & sustainment) Increasing O&S requirements (65-80% of Life Cycle Cost) Equipment condition due to deployment s (Degradation) Obsolescence of Army systems due to age (25-40 yrs) Loss/change of manufacturing sector for COTS (Support Strategy Risk) Inconsistent lifecycle sustainment policy & planning (Organic vs CLS vs TDPs?) Inconsistent engineering/design influence for sustainment (Poor Planning) Stove-piped industrial base issue investigation & resolution (ILSC & PM versus LCMC) Negative economic trends impacting commercial industrial base (Industrial Base Risk) Environmental and safety impacts Result = Increase in Re-active Support Issues Solution = Pro-active Logistics Engineering Support

6 TARDEC Industrial Base Engineering Support UNCLASSIFIED Industrial Base Engineering Team (IBET) TARDEC Engineers: Support LCMC Industrial Base requirements Provide investigation Leverage experience, capability & expertise Provide quick response to problems Support proactive management Improve LCMC communication Apply disciplined processes Implement LCMC wide solutions (standardization) TARDEC POC: IBET Team Leader, Mr. Tony Mitek

7 UNCLASSIFIED Industrial Base Culture Change Past Support = Component or platform focus Lack of standardized LCMC strategies Separate platform support Focus on select STS & OEM supported platforms Individual isolated platform solutions LCMC and experience was not leveraged or shared No pro-active Industrial Base or DMSMS management Current/Future Support = LCMC consideration & application Industrial Base Integration Team (IBIT) Process (2007) = LCMC focus Leverages & shares common/existing LCMC solutions & capability Interfaces with broad commercial industrial base (DMSMS contract) Pro-active LCMC Industrial Base monitoring (capability & risk) Leverages & cultivates non-traditional sources of capability Documents IBIT issues and provides user access (IBIT Console)
